Yeah, this is a disaster waiting to happen for Golden Boy. Their PPV will be going head to head with Showtime who's airing Marquez-Lopez (Darchinyan in the co-feature) that same night.
HBO has shown their inability to intelligently manage the shows they put on. While Mosely might generate some interest, Mora? I don't think this is a bad call on their part unless it was part of a very strong card.
True that. I used to like watching HBO fights but Showtime has been kicking their butt recently. They usually air the good exciting fights. Maybe not the biggest names but who cares as long as u get a good fight. I was debating on what channel to keep after my free trials are up. I was gonna stick with HBO since thats the one i grew up with but Showtime just has shown me more quality recently so im going with them.
Sky Sports (in the UK) would do well to just pick both of these fights up because its the same night as a huge card is airing in the UK. Would be good viewing in terms of a full night of boxing from 8-10pm - 5am
I agree, for example the Marquez-Diaz card is full of fights like this. Two well known fighters with 1 clear favourite
